Flower Child

Flower Child's Oklahoma City location carries the national chain's founding promise — "healthy food for a happy world" — made from scratch with fresh ingredients sourced close to home. The menu is built for people with dietary restrictions who don't want to eat like it: vegetarian, vegan, paleo, sugar-free, dairy-free, and gluten-free options throughout, and the restaurant's own line is that flavor-free is not on the menu. Order around the bowls and salads. The Mother Earth bowl piles ancient grains, sweet potato, portobello mushroom, avocado, and broccoli pesto under a red pepper miso vinaigrette; the Glow Bowl threads sweet potato noodles with shiitake and sunflower sauce. The gluten-free mac and cheese (aged white cheddar and parmesan) and chicken enchiladas with guajillo chile and poblano crema are the comfort-leaning picks, and every salad or bowl can take an added protein. The drinks list is more than an afterthought: rotating kombucha on tap, cold beer, seasonal sangria by the glass or pitcher, and a short wine list. The space is bright and family-oriented, with a dedicated Healthy Kids menu ($8.95 for 12 and under, protein plus two sides) and a 15-person catering minimum handled through advance orders placed at least 15 hours ahead. Family packs feed groups, and the ezCater-style package list (bountiful bowls, wraps, sides like za'atar roasted heirloom carrots) makes it a practical office-lunch option. Find it at 1144 NW 63rd Street, Suite 1003 — open daily 11am to 9pm. Reach them at (405) 486-0420.
